Jennifer Walters / She-Hulk was created by Stan Lee and John Buscema for Marvel Comics. She is a cousin of Bruce Banner / the Hulk and a lawyer by profession. After an injury, the character received an emergency blood transfusion from Banner and hence acquires the power, becoming a strong, big, greener version of herself. But unlike Hulk, Walters is able to retain her intelligence, personality, and emotional control. However, she is still vulnerable to outbursts of temper and turning much stronger if enraged. Jennifer Walters / She-Hulk debuted in Marvel Comics with The Savage She-Hulk #1 in 1980.

She-Hulk plot could show Jennifer Walters’ legal fights as a lawyer and also fighting crime as the superhero. It is still under development and production is expected to begin later this year. The series might premiere on Disney+ in mid or late-2022.
